Notes: Couples, or families with either very young, or mature, children, will probably most appreciate this unique villa. It is truly exceptional, both in terms of space, & quality of furnishings & fittings. The private pool & Jacuzzi spa really are TOTALLY private - unlike other villas with so-called 'private' pools located within sight (and hearing) of their neighbours. The pool/spa are solar heated, which is a real benefit in the summer. The south-facing, extra large deck, wrapped around 3 sides of the pool, is sunny all day, all year round; there is ample shade when it just get too warm. 'The Palm' was recently beautifully furnished from new, & you'll find lots of little touches that are unusual in vacation homes. Many guests have said that our photos don't do justice to the quality & style of the 'The Palm'. Our new 'virtual tour' hopefully remedies this! We employ a professional Management Company, available 24/7 in the unlikely event of any problems during your stay.

Review Submitted: December 6, 2007 Date of Stay: December 2007
'We have been to many different styles of hotel/apartment/villa etc. (we own some timeshare) but we have never seen anything that comes close to yours. The space was exceptional and the standard of fittings and fixtures was unbelievable.......I could go on, but you should be so proud of your investment..........we will be recommending your villa to ANYONE who mentions going to Florida to us.' Bill & Nicola, Manchester UK

'A perfect, beautiful, and immaculately clean property! Spacious, very comfortable, and better than anyplace we've ever stayed when traveling describes this vacation property! The pool area being so private is a big plus and every necessity is availed. I can't imagine anyone coming to central Florida and not finding this home to be the perfect vacation accommodation whether for a couple or a family - the Palm is our favorite. We definitely intend to return. Thanks to Amanda & Ian for providing Everything!'

My family and I totally enjoyed our stay in Winter Haven. Super Walmart, just at your door was my wife's heaven. The guest house/suite was great for a visiting couple from Florida. We played many games of pool every day. My children really enjoyed the pool table. Make sure you visit Manny's for dinner, it's just down the road on 27.
